Yeah, I had no problem installing everything. It was even faster than
what I expected after your phrase about "many thousands of packages" ;-)

It looks pretty cool in that it allows you to define package schemes you
want to install, and it's probably not its only advantage. Thanks for
the great work :-)

Thank you! The command
nix-env -i -A 'nixos.pkgs.texlive.combined.scheme-full'
has pulled the full distribution, including the version of Linux
Libertine which solves my issues with small caps.
However, in order to make fontconfig see the installed fonts, I had to
manually add the line
<dir>~/.nix-profile/share/texmf/fonts/</dir>
to my ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf. I suppose, this directory would
have been registered in the global /etc/fonts/fonts.conf had I installed
texlive via my configuration.nix?
